Generalist. ~15 years in startups, engineer, CTO, devrel, QA, Growth, PM. Mostly whatever the thing needed at the time.
Right now I'm an agentic engineer. I work on agents that live in group chats with real people, which is mostly about teaching them when not to answer.
I like startups, agents, and building tools for stuff I actually do. Buenos Aires, Argentina
